Three athletes from The College of Wooster—Dylan Garretson (pole vault), Daysia Hargrave (100-meter hurdles), and Ainsley Wiesner (hammer throw)—qualified for the NCAA Div. III National Championships, held May 23-25 at Doug Shaw Memorial Stadium in Myrtle Beach, SC. Garretson aims for his third All-American title, while Hargrave and Wiesner look to make their marks with strong performances.

By the Numbers
  • Garretson cleared 16 feet, 4 inches at the All-Ohio Championships, seeding 9th.
  • Hargrave's 100 hurdles time of 14.11 at OSU's Jesse Owens Classic ranks 11th nationally.
  • Wiesner's hammer throw of 176 feet, 2 inches at the Jesse Owens Classic seeds her 14th.
